Overview of 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL For Sale by Owner

There’s an interesting trend taking place in North America, where youngsters are starting to discover the allure of classic cars. Perhaps its their rather more appealing color palette, the fond talk that they’ve heard about classics from their elders, or the desire to diverge from the herd of soulless electric cars that are being thrust upon us. In fact, one of the most interesting classic car choices with Gen Z is starting to become the Mercedes-Benz R107-series SL-Class! Produced between 1971 and 1989, over 200,000 came to North America, and they’re sturdy cars, let us tell you. We’ve helped so many examples find new owners that we can safety say that these are built to last if cared for appropriately. So, if you’re a parent (or a youngster) who’s looking for their first classic, check out this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Roadster from New Hampshire. With its V8 engine, timeless styling and relatively low 72,137 miles, it’s a great choice.

Exterior and Interior

This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Roadster wears a very nice shade of gold paint that looks suitably classy for a classy car. It rides on a set of proper Mercedes-Benz alloy wheels in silver, and comes with the North American-mandated sealed beam headlamps and elongated bumpers too. These features diluted the looks of many other foreign cars, but the R107 was so breathtaking that it still looks great. This is definitely an object of beauty, and it appears to be all stock too. Furthermore, all badging is present and correct. As for weather protection, you’ve got a dark brown convertible soft top. The interior of this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Roadster comes with two tan seats and some wood trim on the dashboard. Since this is a North American market car, it’s got the padded luggage area behind the seats, a place that saw a small rear seat for European cars. Granted, the luggage area is more useful. There’s cruise control, automatic climate control and the original Becker Grand Prix radio to enjoy in this car.

Engine

This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Roadster has got a 3.8-liter V8 under the hood. Since this is a post-1981 car, it’s equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission to drive the rear wheels. It’s also got front and rear vented disc brakes, recirculating ball power steering and a 3.27 rear axle ratio. With 155hp and 196lb-ft on tap, you’ve got enough power to move around smartly, yet not enough to overwhelm.
